Things To Do in Royal Leamington Spa, Warwickshire
Royal Pump Rooms Leamington Spa
At the heart of Leamington Spa are the Royal Pump Rooms - a grade II listed building that dates from 1816.
Built to take advantage of the popularity of spa baths in the 18th and 19th centuries, the Royal Pump Rooms are a reminder of a time when people flocked to Leamington from across Europe to take the waters.
Today the building has been redeveloped and you can see exhibitions at the art gallery or visit the cafe.
